Back when I posted last ( four days ago), I left you with a little 'teaser' by only showing you a pic or two of what I was working on.... well, here are some more pics :)
Here it is completed... front view and back view
It was a bit of a challenge, but not too bad... more prep work than actual sewing.
After I finished the table runner (above), I started on the wall hanging kit that I purchased on sale at AQS's website. I really don't know why I bought it - it's certainly not 'me'/my style. But it, too, was a bit of a challenge as to how to transfer the markings onto the black fabric so that I could hand stitch the circles.
I finally decided to trace around the circles onto parchment paper, cut them out and then draw around them with a white chalk 'pencil' and it worked.
Top completed and the binding and the split sleeve are ready for hand sewing... yeah, sigh, I'm hand stitching the binding on to the back. I didn't want the binding to be as wide as it usually is when I do it all by machine, so went with the 'old fashioned' way. Just not sure when I'm going to actually get
around to doing it.
Once the Luna quilt was as finished as it was going to get yesterday, while cleaning up some of the scraps, I decided to make a couple more key fobs
Not sure what I'm going to be doing today. Had to drop our cat, Chewy, off at the vet's again this morning. He's not eating and that's not good. They gave me antibiotics to give to him but the only way I could do that was to put it in his moist food --no eating, no getting meds., no chance of getting better :(
I think I'm just going to do some 'puttering' around the house... dishwasher needs emptying and reloaded, have a load of laundry that should be done... you know, all that 'ho hum' stuff.
Well, Buddy is out on the porch/deck and has decided that he wants back in........
take care..
ttyl...
stay safe
